Likes to use Large Rockets. Has been known to allow Terror Ships to land, just so he can go after them with a squad of his strongest soldiers, armed exclusively with Rocket Launchers.

Also known as 80.5.160.25 The ufopaedia doesn't always agree with me about whether I am logged in.

Playing style

Level: Veteran/Genius

Questionable things I don't do:

Reloading when things go bad (The aliens don't do it after all (except when the game crashes, I suppose))
Accessing alien inventory (It's a bug!)
Walking through walls (ditto)
Using Medi-Kit as alien detector
Throwing grenades through the ceiling
Throwing stuff through diagonal walls

Questionable things I will do:

Firing a rocket into a destructible ceiling in order to get an alien in floor above.  (This is a slight cheat because the explosion occurs on the level the alien is at.)
Nuking the crap out of a battleship with blaster bombs.  (Turn 1 goes like this: Soldier 1 fires launcher into top of UFO, drops it, steps back.  Soldier 2 steps onto launcher, picks it up, reloads it, drops it, steps back. Soldier 3 steps onto launcher, picks it up, fires it through the hole the first guy just made and into the bridge.)
Mind-controlling all 4 bits of a terror unit and using it as a scout with massive TUs
Stunning aliens, reviving them with medikits, and using them for training purposes.

(Urgh, lookslike I found a bug. How do I make that box go away?)

Alien Entertainment

Has anyone noticed that terror units and alien entertainment are always found in the same places? That's not a coincidence. Terror units have nothing much to do in flight - it's not like they can operate the UFO equipment - and so they need to be kept busy somehow. Otherwise they get... cranky. And you don't want to be sharing a long flight with a bunch of cranky chrysalids.
